RE: Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan
How long have Stagecoach got the 350/425 tender for, is it a yearly tender or have they got it for 5 years?

Both 19414 and 19415 have transferred from Sharston to Stockport.

What are the reasons for these loans? And why are they only loans and not transfers?

Broadening the this question out;; Last week s changes would have involved PVR variations at various depots. Just off the top of my head:. 415, unconfirmed reports suggest 47472/3 & 47824/5 have been reinstated at MN. 34; Which depot is. running the shorts which I. reckon need 4 buses? 330; 2 buses at least saved by reverting to original route. Does that mean 2 MMC s transfer Fred out or two older Enviro400s moved or placed in reserve? X30 Conversely, this requires at least 2 buses at ST. How is this resource d?
